The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 137

Chapter 137 Humiliated

Meanwhile….

In the Elegance Room, Amanda and Simon waited at the dining table for a long while, but Simon’s parents

still hadn’t arrived.

Amanda couldn’t help feeling a little nervous as she constantly picked up her cup to drink tea.

“Don’t worry, my parents are quite easygoing. They’re the ones who wanted to dine with you, after all.” Of course, Simon noticed Amanda’s nervousness,

“I know.” Amanda smiled awkwardly.

Just then, the door to the private room was pushed open. A middle-aged couple walked in, and Amanda stood up without thinking.

They must be Simon’s parents!

“Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Nicholson. In her nervousness, Amanda accidentally knocked over the cup in front of her. As the tea spilled onto her clothes, the awkwardness she felt skyrocketed.

Amanda’s face was burning. She wished she could just disappear.

Simon, however, was calm as he got some tissues and wiped the mess for her, saying, “Look how nervous you are! Relax, my parents aren’t monsters”

Simon’s parents couldn’t help chuckling when they saw the scene.

Tm so sorry, Mr. and Mrs. Nicholson. I was too nervous.” Amanda hastily took the tissues from Simon and wiped herself dry.

“You don’t have to be so nervous, Miss Bailey. Have a seat. We’re just going to eat. Simon’s father, Frederick Nicholson, spoke up to case the atmosphere.

Amanda sat on the chair, smiling stiffly. She looked subconsciously at Simon beside her.

Simon made the introductions. “Dad, Mom, this is Amanda Bailey, my girlfriend. She’s also an outstanding lawyer.”

With that, he turned to Amanda. “Amanda, meet my mom and dad. They’re lawyers too.”
